About this item
In this sweet and affirming picture book, two cats discover they don't need to share a language to become friends.Leonard adores his human. "Stay! Let's play!" he says when it's time to leave for work. His human just hears "Meow." Sometimes Leonard gets lonely. So does Mariposa, who is new in town. Maybe they could keep each other company? "Hello," says Leonard. "Hola," says Mariposa. While the friends don't share a language, they do share adventures. And together they find a place where all cats - and their humans - are welcome.
About the Author
I'm the author of "Word Nerd," "Dear George Clooney: Please Marry My Mom," "The Reluctant Journal of Henry K. Larsen," "We Are All Made of Molecules" and the newly released "Optimists Die First." I got my start writing for the original "Degrassi Junior High." I've done a lot of writing for TV over the years. A part of my brain stopped growing when I was about 13 (this isn't a medical fact, just a gut feeling) . I suspect it's why I love writing middle grade and YA fiction! I live in Vancouver, Canada, with my family and two very destructive cats: Emily Bronte and Erwin Schrodinger. I also love to road bike. Yes, that's right: I proudly wear a lot of spandex cycling gear.
